Answer:

a) stored as glycogen in the liver and muscles.

Explanation:

Glycogen is the stored form of glucose in animals. Digestion of carbohydrates breakdown the complex sugars into simple sugars, mainly glucose. These simpler sugars are carried to cells to serve as respiratory substrates. The excess of the simpler sugars is taken up by the cells of the liver and muscles and is stored in the form of glycogen.

Glycogen storage in liver and muscle cells serves as a source of glucose as and when required. The large cytosolic granules of glycogen consist of glycogen and the enzymes required for its synthesis and breakdown. The synthesis of glycogen from glucose is called glycogenesis.

Gregor Mendel, through his work on pea plants, discovered the fundamental laws of inheritance. He deduced that genes come in pairs and are inherited as distinct units, one from each parent. Mendel tracked the segregation of parental genes and their appearance in the offspring as dominant or recessive traits. He recognized the mathematical patterns of inheritance from one generation to the next. Mendel's Laws of Heredity are usually stated as:

1) The Law of Segregation: Each inherited trait is defined by a gene pair. Parental genes are randomly separated to the sex cells so that sex cells contain only one gene of the pair. Offspring therefore inherit one genetic allele from each parent when sex cells unite in fertilization.

2) The Law of Independent Assortment: Genes for different traits are sorted separately from one another so that the inheritance of one trait is not dependent on the inheritance of another.

3) The Law of Dominance: An organism with alternate forms of a gene will express the form that is dominant.

Why do many fishermen support efforts to protect and restore mangrove forests?
const2013 [10]
<span>The reason why many fishermen support efforts to protect and restore mangrove forests is because many fish breed in mangrove forests. These types of forests are quite important because they contain a strong ecosystem within them, which are also relevant for these fishermen who want to catch those fish that can only be found in mangrove forests. This is why they want to preserve them as much as they can.</span>
